Alex Wann & Notre Dame Team Up on Mesmerizing Anthem: ‘The City’

The track lands hot on the heels of the pair’s co-headline tour across North America

Amsterdam, NL – November 7, 2025 – Acclaimed DJ and producer Alex Wann has teamed up with rising artist Notre Dame for their first-ever collaboration, ‘The City,’ out now via Armada Music. The release follows closely on the heels of the pair’s North American co-headline tour, including a standout performance at 99Scott in Brooklyn, New York City.

Listen to Alex Wann x Notre Dame feat. Carte Blanche – The City

Blending Alex Wann’s signature Afro-house rhythms with Notre Dame's melodic textures, ‘The City’ delivers an evocative soundscape enriched by a powerful vocal from Carte Blanche, who delivers the emotive refrain: “I fell in love with the city.” Already a highlight in sets across the globe, the track is primed to become a standout dancefloor anthem.

Alex Wann says: "Jeremie (Notre Dame) and I have known each other for over ten years — friends from the same hometown. 'The City' came together naturally. The vocal immediately caught our attention: inspiring, emotional, and perfectly matching the energy we wanted to create."

Notre Dame added: “‘The City’ is a track born from our shared story, two kids who grew up in Paris and started this journey together. It’s a tribute to those nights that shaped us, to the city that raised us, and to everything that made us dream bigger." 

Alex Wann has continued on an impressive upwards trajectory in 2025, building on his recognition as Dancing Astronaut’s Artists To Watch. With over 3.6 million monthly listeners, he continues to captivate audiences worldwide, highlighted by his rework of Route 94 and Jess Glynne’s ‘My Love,’ which has surpassed 72,000 streams and earned praise from When We Dip for his “talent for reimagining classic tracks with a fresh, modern twist.”

Notre Dame has quickly established himself as one of electronic music’s brightest new talents. In the past months he launched his own label, Paranormal, dropped ‘Give It To Me 2025,’ a collaboration with Adriatique, Nelly Furtado, and Timbaland on Interscope, while continuing to tour globally and deliver high-profile remixes for Lenny Kravitz, Bedouin, Röyksopp, and BLOND:ISH.
